UN 3028 – BATTERIES, DRY, CONTAINING POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE SOLID electric storage

Batteries need not be individually marked and labelled if the pallet bears the appropriate mark and label.

This entry may only be used for the transport of non-activated batteries which contain dry potassium hydroxide and which are intended to be activated prior to use by addition of an appropriate amount of water to the individual cells.

The following are not subject to the requirements of ADR: (a) New storage batteries when: - they are secured in such a way that they cannot slip, fall or be damaged; - they are provided with carrying devices, unless they are suitably stacked, e.g. on pallets; - there are no dangerous traces of alkalis or acids on the outside; - they are protected against short circuits; (b) Used storage batteries when: - their cases are undamaged; - they are secured in such a way that they cannot leak, slip, fall or be damaged, e.g. by stacking on pallets; - there are no dangerous traces of alkalis or acids on the outside of the articles; - they are protected against short circuits. "Used storage batteries" means storage batteries carried for recycling at the end of their normal service life.
